Designed by David Rainville. This is a short, executive course with water everywhere. The golfer prone to errant shots will find out quickly that this course is only an oasis for abused golf balls tired of being topped, sliced, hooked, and looking for a good place to hide. Carts are included in the green fees. From downtown Los Angeles (about 130 miles east to the course): Take I-10 east, exit at Washington Street and turn right. Turn right on Hovley Lane. The course is on the left.

 

OASIS GOLF CLUB

 

DESERT REGION

Resort/Semi-Private - 36 hole - cost: $70 - $140

100 Palmer lane, Mesquite, NV 89027

Tel: (702) 346-7820 

 

Designed by Arnold Palmer. The Oasis Course has a rugged feel with the scenic desert as a back-drop. The course plays through canyons and requires a good touch around the greens. The Vistas Course, soon to be 18-holes, is a long nine-hole course (3,500 yards), par 37. It can be a beast. The yardage listed is for the Oasis Course. Carts are mandatory and included. From the Las Vegas Airport (about 90 miles northeast to the course): Take I-15 north to Mesquite. Take the second Mesquite exit, Exit 122. Take the first right. This is a spectacular golf course, one of Palmer Group's best, and easily worth the drive from Vegas
